NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Remembering NEOWISE” is copyrighted by Petr Horalek. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Comet NEOWISE was visible in the northern evening sky in July 2020. If you could find the Big Dipper, you could find the comet below its bowl and above the northwestern horizon. It appeared as a fuzzy 'star' with a tail, as captured in this memorable skyview from the Czech Republic near its closest approach to Earth.
